In a quiet study, Green sat in a chair, his gaze fixed on the book before him.
From the outside, it appeared to be an ordinary book, the kind you could pick up in any bookstore.
But Green's furrowed brows, focused expression, and the beads of sweat forming on his forehead told a different story.
This book was anything but ordinary.
After a long pause, Green exhaled deeply, his fatigue evident.
The book had been left to him by Daniel. Green made it a habit to study it whenever he had free time.
Five years had passed, yet he still felt as though he had only scratched the surface of its knowledge.
The contents of the book were vast, like an endless ocean.
The more he delved into it, the more he realized how little he truly understood.
Back when Green had told Daniel of his desire to grow stronger, Daniel had given him the book.
At first, Green had devoured its pages day and night, completely absorbed.
